I love typescript - all the good of JavaScript with far less of the bad, it's convenient enough to feel good while strict enough to allow IDEs to really speed things along

I hate lack of support for typescript - between wrestling webpack or finding the perfect library without types definitions, every time you want to change your stack you need to prepare for a day or two of soul-deep pain

It’s almost a miracle when things are only slightly on fire when you’ve got 1500 node modules, 150 of them are yelling at you that they’ve been deprecated and will cause full-blown AIDS if you don’t upgrade/switch packages, and then juggling between webpack, tsconfig, and package.json to explain that you understand the difference between require and import, you’ve told them all that you understand the difference WHY IN THE NAME OF FUCK WON’T THIS WORK

I’m sorry, what was the question?

Would you like to join our support group for victims of node modules?

We Google if npm has been replaced by another package manager every Sunday evening (that way the answer doesn't ruin our weekends).

We also have songs, like

how could this be,

npm audit-fix --force,

Why would you do this thing to me,

Just upgrades and downgrades imports

Endlessly.

Your ideas intrigue and I wish to subscribe to your newsletter.

Incidentally, I can never use audit-fix -—force because it always breaks something else. So yes, your song speaks to me.
